MISSISSAUGA — TICO is appealing to registrants to help track down 13 registrants who are eligible to have their security deposits returned to them.
TICO has been reviewing all registrant security deposits that have been held for more than two years, as part of the recommendations in the Office of the Auditor General of Ontario’s value-for-money audit released in December 2023.
There are 13 former registrants that TICO has been unable to locate or make contact with to initiate the security return process.
Says TICO Registrar Dorian Werda: “These cases represent exceptional circumstances, where security deposits have been held for longer than expected and the rightful owners haven’t been located. While we search for these individuals, we are committed to enhancing our processes to ensure fair and timely handling of all security deposits, safeguarding the interests of both consumers and agency owners.”
